I'm sorry I didn't see this question when it was first posted, and that the original poster didn't contact us on our mailing lists - though that may have been due to the project hosting problems at the time.

For the record - as a committer to the project: the Flying Saucer downloads/artifacts, our documentation, and our issue tracker, are now hosted on

http://code.google.com/p/flying-saucer/

as we decided to move away from java.net as a hosting provider. Unfortunately as the project was hosted on java.net for many years there are many links to our old host.

java.net itself went through a major move to new infrastructure in the last 6 months and this caused some projects to be unavailable for a short time, including ours. I recently updated the java.net project page to point to our new project home. All issues in the java.net issue tracker were also moved to Google Code.

We host our code on GitHub: https://github.com/flyingsaucerproject/flyingsaucer

We reached a sort of plateau with our last release (R8), as the code is production-ready (and used at a number of companies), implements CSS 2.1 well (we think), and is reasonably bug-free. Since our last release there has only been a slow trickle of bug fixes in trunk. We will release in the near future, although feature-wise, this will be more like R8.1 as opposed to R9.

The current core contributors are not actively developing new features or large-scale changes, however, we welcome contributors and do occasionally receive patches from our users. This has become easier for us to manage since our move to Git.

We look forward to hearing from you on our mailing lists, linked from our project home page.
